Whereas Basic Pistol focuses on safety and pure marksmanship fundamentals\, the CCW course puts those fundamental skills into a defensive context. This course is ideal for those who intend to carry a concealed handgun on their person\, outside of the home. \nThere will be some review of general marksmanship (sight alignment\, trigger control\, etc.)\, but the primary focus of NRA CCW is defensive mindset and concealed carry techniques (presentation from a holster). There is no prerequisite for this class\, but typically students will have some general familiarity with the five fundamentals of marksmanship. However\, when we have CCW students who are brand new to shooting\, we will adjust the curriculum accordingly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Can I use this class to get my carry permit?” tab_id=”ccw-class-for-carry-permit”][vc_column_text]Every state has its own rules for handgun carry permit issuance. The NRA CCW class is designed to meet most states’ training requirements\, and many states do accept it\, but please do not make any assumptions. To find out for sure\, contact the proper officials in your state to verify whether the CCW course will satisfy that state’s training requirement. \nTennessee has designed its own training course specifically for Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit applicants\, and this course is currently not accepted as a substitute. However\, Tennessee now has a new permit called the Concealed Handgun Carry permit\, and the NRA CCW class DOES satisfy the training requirement for Tennessee’s Concealed Handgun Carry permit. We’ve assembled a page on our website with more information on the difference between the two permits. \nRegardless of whether this course satisfies your state’s required training for concealed carry\, it is an excellent primer for anyone who plans to go armed in public and wishes to do so safely and responsibly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][/vc_tta_section][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

This is not about defensive shooting or tactics. It’s also not a shooting course\, so we will not be teaching fundamentals or practicing marksmanship. Instructor candidates are presumed to already know how to shoot. Instead\, the course will focus on helping you learn to be an effective instructor.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]This course teaches firearms trainers how to deliver the NRA’s Basic Rifle lesson plans. Small classes ensure low student-to-instructor ratios for lots of individualized attention. During several mock teaching lessons called “teach-backs\,” instructor candidates will practice teaching assigned lessons in front of the group\, and we’ll offer constructive feedback. Through the teach-backs\, instructor candidates will demonstrate organizational skills\, public speaking skills\, and teaching skills via active participation\, including leading live-fire exercises on the range. Course modules include the following: \n\nTeaching rifle knowledge and nomenclature\nTeaching safe gun handling\nTeaching about rifle ammunition\nTeaching the fundamentals of rifle shooting\nBasic rifle instructional method\nManaging a line of basic rifle shooters on the range\nScoring targets\nTeaching how to select and maintain rifles\nConducting course examinations with basic rifle students\nand much more!\n\nInstructor candidates also must successfully complete the shooting qualification and the written exam. Each instructor candidate will receive the NRA Trainer’s Guide\, NRA Rifle Shooting Instructor Candidate Packet\, and NRA Basic Rifle Shooting course student packet. \nDetails on the classroom and range location will be sent directly to the registered students.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment”][vc_column_text]Instructor candidates will need: \n\na quality rifle/carbine\nat least one magazine (if yours is a magazine-fed rifle)\neye protection and ear protection (provided by CSA\, or you can use your own)\nsufficient ammunition in your rifle’s caliber\n\nat least 30 rounds for the pre-course qualification (x2 or x3 if you have to re-shoot the qual; you’re only allowed a total of three attempts)\nroughly 50 rounds to use during the practice teaching sessions when instructor candidates will role-play as rifle instructors guiding a class of basic rifle students\n\n\nanything you need to keep yourself comfortable in the elements (we’ll spend a few hours on an outdoor range)\n\nA rifle sling is not required for this class\, but if your rifle has one\, it could definitely come in handy. \nFeel free to contact us for questions about equipment requirements\, and please let us know in well advance if you will need to purchase ammo from us so we can make sure we’re sufficiently stocked.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Course Length” tab_id=”course-length”][vc_column_text]This course includes roughly ten hours of instruction (excluding BIT).

For those who have already taken Basic Rifle\, please email us your course completion certificate ASAP. If you still need to take Basic Rifle\, we are offering that course the same weekend. \nThe NRA Rifle Instructor Certification does require Basic Instructor Training (BIT). However\, in this case\, our ten-hour instructional time does NOT include BIT. This is a semi-closed class\, and most of the participants already have BIT\, so we’re not offering BIT with the instructor training. Instead\, we are only offering part 2: the Rifle Instructor lessons. If you do not have any other NRA instructor certifications (pistol\, shotgun\, etc.)\, or if you do have other certifications but your BIT is due to be renewed\, please contact us immediately so we can discuss options for satisfying your BIT requirement another way.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

Enrollment is limited to students who have already completed training from a recognized instructor that included drawing\, reloading\, etc\, under time constraints. Graduates from a law enforcement academy\, IDPA Sharpshooter class or USPSA C-class shooters or higher will also be accepted. Other students may be admitted with approval from the instructor.

During this part\, candidates will learn NRA policies and procedures\, basic public speaking skills\, training methodology\, use of a training team and training aids\, organizing a course\, building a budget\, and preparing to teach. Day one also includes the pre-course shooting qualification. \nDay two is Pistol Instructor training. During this portion\, candidates will be provided with the Basic Pistol lesson plans and student packets. Role playing is a major part of an instructor course.

This is a firm NRA policy\, and there are no exceptions\, regardless of your occupation\, regardless of other certifications\, and regardless of how much prior training and experience you’ve had. \nIf you haven’t completed Basic Pistol\, we will be offering it at Top Gun on Thursday and Friday night before his instructor course. Please see our calendar for details or send us an email.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]You’ll need a quality handgun and approximately 100 rounds of ammunition. The round-count is an estimation\, as we’ll need roughly 20 rounds for the range teach-backs (where instructor candidates role-play as students) and another 20 rounds for each attempt at the instructor qualification course of fire. Candidates who need to shoot the course multiple times will need more ammo\, so we advise everyone to bring about 100 rounds just to be safe. You’ll also need eye and ear protection. \nYou will NOT need a holster for this class. All shooting is done from a table\, not from the holster.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

Stay tuned! \nRegardless of whether this course satisfies your state’s required training for concealed carry\, it is an excellent primer for anyone who plans to go armed in public and wishes to do so safely and responsibly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Location” tab_id=”location”][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to travel to the Empire State for this class. We’ll be hosted by the Dorie Miller Rifle and Pistol Club of Buffalo\, NY. That’s where CSA’s founder and lead instructor\, Aqil Qadir\, grew up and began his career as a firearms trainer. Location of the class is the Ten X Shooting Club in Lancaster\, NY.
